It was my first time staying in a budget hotel and I was pleasantly surprised that Hotel Irene City is very comfortable. And though the building is old, it is very clean and all the amenities are readily available. The staff is very friendly and helpful until the day we checked out, when it was raining, they even gave is umbrellas. Very near to transportation, convenience stores, and shopping areas.

A simple hotel, but I loved how easy it was to walk everywhere—restaurants, 7/11, trains, etc. It was quiet, felt safe, and while the room was basic, it was comfortable and cool when needed. The staff were friendly, and I have no complaints at all!

The location really is convenient for everything you need or want. The air conditioning works really well. I noticed that there were bugs and places that needed to be cleaned. The bedding wasn't in good condition and the matress was very hard. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

Tiny home

It’s a small place to stay in but for the price it was very good. The beds were decent and bathroom not to bad. Good for a quick stay or don’t mind staying in a cheap cramped place for a long period for just sleep then it’s perfect. They freely supply extra needs and front desk workers were so nice and helpful.
